From that extended squad there is probably 3 players that people suggest are a bit lucky to be in it. All 3 of them possess one quality that our list seems to be in short supply of, hence their constant inclusion.
Speed.
Garlett, polson and obrien have it and few others do.
A team needs it. Hence one of them is usually in the side, usually making way for one another.
Personally I'd like to give each of them an extended run at it, including garlett as I think they have all shown signs worth persisting with. However, I think it will be a need we address in the off season if possible.
Having speed is one thing, having awful disposal is another. Also shirks a contest.
